Hello, so i have a PC from HP. (HPE-500cs) Here are complete specs: http:// . My question is, can i add a second graphic card GTX 460 through SLI? Will the 460W power supply be enough? Thanks for answering. Martin

Since the power recommendations for the GTX 460 is 500 watts, I would say not. Those recommendations are usually well over the minimum, but you are talking about adding a potential 240 watts of load to an already stretched PSU.

If I was really desperate, I might try it, but be prepared for real problems. An over taxed PSU could wipe out a lot of hardware.

There is only 1 pciex16 slot on the mainboard. So you can not add another.
